What causes chronic pain after a motor vehicle accident?

Texarkana neck pain and headache treatmentOver 2 million people are injured every year in auto accidents in the U.S. While some people are able to heal from their injuries relatively quickly, many are left to deal with chronic pain and disability. We see many of these patients here in our Texarkana office. Luckily, Back Pain Chiropractic is here to help you heal from your auto injury.

Research Proves Chiropractic Helps Prevent Chronic Pain After an Auto Accident

The science confirms what we see in our office: A British study was carried out on 28 people diagnosed with chronic whiplash syndrome. Each participant received chiropractic care and 93 percent of them found relief following their adjustments, even though 43 percent of whiplash sufferers overall usually never find relief. This confirms that chiropractic is a great way to avoid long-term pain after an auto injury.

It's important to note that research has also found that delaying care after a car crash can adversely affect healing time, so getting in to see Back Pain Chiropractic at the earliest opportunity is key to having a speedier recovery.
